Chapter 90 Caring About You
Gu An's face darkened, his brows furrowed, and he shouted angrily: "Why are you talking so harshly?"
Nan Xiao curled his lips, and with a hint of sarcasm, he responded without a hint of weakness: "I said something rude? Then what did you mean by that just now? I wear a tortoise shell to protect myself, how does that bother you?"
"If you can't speak, just shut up. Why are you trying to make a name for yourself?"
"You..." Gu An gritted his teeth, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire, staring at Nan Xiao.
"What do you mean..." Nan Xiao raised his chin slightly, his bright eyes full of provocation.
The atmosphere between the two began to become tense, as if a fight was about to break out at any second.
At this moment, something unexpected happened. Qiao Yue, with the help of Su Xun and the others, had just finished setting up the spiritual formation when the ghostly faces around the Blood Evil Cauldron began to laugh crazily. Black blood began to flow from their eyes and slowly flowed down the cauldron, making a sizzling sound and emitting a pungent odor wherever it touched.
Qiao Tianchu took the opportunity to open the lid of the Blood Evil Cauldron, and black shadows spurted out from the sky. The entire sky above the City Lord's Mansion was instantly covered by black shadows.
They rushed madly in groups, ramming hard into the trap, trying to escape from this small and crowded space and suck the essence of their favorite living people.
The space for Qiao Yue and others to move was also squeezed by the black shadows floating in the sky.
Everyone used their spiritual power to create a shield to temporarily block these dark shadows.
They held up their shields and slowly approached the direction of the tripod, so as to give Yang Boyong in the dark an accurate location to drop the weapon.
…
Shen Chaochao was frightened by the scene in front of her and was trembling with fear.
She screamed in fear and called for help, "Third Brother, save me, Third Brother... Help me, someone save me."
She clearly had a spiritual sword in her hand, and although these shadows were numerous, they were not difficult to kill. But Shen Chaochao didn't even have the courage to raise the sword.
If it weren't for the protective magic weapon on her body that protected her, she would have been torn to pieces by this group of black shadows.
Gu An's expression changed when he heard Shen Chaochao's cry for help. He was not too far away from Shen Chaochao, but there were many dark shadows blocking his sight and path.
He couldn’t see Shen Chaochao’s current situation clearly at all.
I could only comfort her and yell, "Don't be afraid, little apprentice sister. I'll be there soon."
After Gu An finished speaking, he manipulated more than ten daggers and tried his best to kill these black shadows. Relying on his perseverance, he began to move towards Shen Chaochao.
However, due to the sheer number of shadows, his movement was extremely slow. Where normally he could reach with a few long strides, now, after an incense stick of time, he had only taken a small step forward.
Shen Chaochao's frightened scream echoed in the darkness, sounding even more creepy.
"Third Brother, where are you? Why haven't you come yet..."
"Someone, come and save me..."
“…………”
Now everyone is busy with their own affairs, and no one except Gu An cares about her.
Just when Shen Chaozhao was screaming at the top of her lungs and falling into despair, a flash of sword light passed by, cutting through the darkness before her eyes.
Zhou Shiqing's clothes fluttered in the wind, and a faint aura surrounded him. Although his face was covered with a lot of dust, he did not look embarrassed at all.
In Shen Chaochao's view, his appearance now was like a god descending to earth, specifically to save her.
Zhou Shiqing had a faint smile on his face, and said politely, "Junior Sister Shen, are you okay?"
Because there were too many black shadows and Qiao Tianchu was protected by black shadows, he lost sight of Qiao Tianchu and happened to hear Shen Chaochao's cry for help, so he saved her first.
Zhou Shiqing's gentle and powerful voice sounded, which made Shen Chaochao feel particularly reassured.
She was stunned at first, then called out blankly, "Brother Zhou...Brother Zhou."
At this time, Shen Chaochao realized that she was saved, and quickly hid behind Zhou Shiqing, holding one of his arms tightly with both hands, trying to find a sense of security.
Zhou Shiqing frowned slightly. He really didn't like physical contact with strangers.
Just when he wanted to let Shen Chaochao go, he saw the little girl's eyes filled with tears and her delicate body trembling slightly with fear. Zhou Shiqing swallowed his words to let her go.
At this time, Qiao Yue and others also found the location of the tripod with great effort. She shouted and provided Yang Boyong with the exact location of the tripod.
"Brother Yang, here."
Yang Boyong immediately understood what Qiao Yue meant. He tied dozens of bombs together, threw them with all his might, and shouted, "Run!"
Qiao Yue and others began to run out with all their might.
Unfortunately, there were too many obstructing shadows, and even with all their might, they could barely escape the range of the high-level spirit formation. Seeing no escape route, everyone could only work together to create a shield.
The moment Nan Xiao heard Yang Boyong's voice, he used his tortoise shell to protect himself.
Not to mention, this thing is really useful, it's an explosion-proof artifact, and its temperament matches her very well.
A deafening explosion resounded, shaking the very heavens and earth. A fiery red mushroom cloud shot straight into the sky, briefly illuminating the entire Tianhe City with its sheer force and awe.
The trap shattered with a sound, and the dark shadows in the sky were swept away by the terrifying heat wave. It seemed that there were countless voices wailing and struggling in pain.
The two formations set up by Qiao Yue only lasted for a moment before they were blown to pieces. The heat wave rolled outward, and none of the houses around the City Lord's Mansion were spared. They all collapsed and turned into ruins.
After the horrific explosion ended, Nan Xiao was the first to react.
This is no longer the city lord's mansion, but an empty lot full of ruins.
The two previous explosions had left behind some shattered walls, giving a rough idea of the city's appearance. These ten or so bombs had completely reduced the City Lord's Mansion to a heap of ruins.
Second Senior Sister wouldn't ask her for compensation, would she?
The person closest to her was Gu An. Due to excessive spiritual energy depletion, he didn't have much strength to hold up a shield. Perhaps he had some other life-saving magic weapon on him, as he looked a little pale from the outside. As for whether he had any internal injuries, Nan Xiao was not sure.
He fell quietly to the ground. If it weren't for the slightly rising and falling chest, Nan Xiao would have thought he was dead.
Nan Xiao kicked him and asked tentatively, "Are you dead?"
If he wasn't conscious, she would try to finish him off to avenge him for the mistake he had just made.
The two of them were originally fighting against the black shadow together, but because Shen Chaochao shouted, the bastard left without saying a word, causing her to be almost rushed by the black shadow. Fortunately, Xiaoya helped her in time and she was able to stabilize herself.
If you are conscious, you can take the opportunity to kick it a few times to vent your anger.
Gu An opened his eyes with great effort, his eyes were gloomy, "What are you going to do?"
Nan Xiao had an innocent smile on his face, "I saw that you were injured, so I wanted to show my concern for you."
"Go away. I don't need your fake kindness here."
Gu An was rather weak at this time, and even his threats sounded weak and powerless.
